I think I should write a paragraph.

For a long time, I always wanted to write a little, but I have been lazy to start writing, the development of modern science and communication technology, resulting in the weakening of the instinct of writing as a record, and forgetting to write has become the current norm.

Now some young people seem to know that word, that is, when they take notes, they feel like they have known each other, but they scratch their heads, bow their heads, smile and feel helpless to forget it. Are they old?

r not to get into old age too early, I want to force myself to write, to drive away old age, and at the same time can make an unforgettable memory in the pen, as a reminiscence of the material.

Sunday, September 9, 2018, the temperature of Linfen is 19 degrees -29 degrees Celsius. After a summer's transpiration, the earth enters the cool solar terms slightly, and the sky is high and the clouds are thin.

Fou of us went out in the morning and went to the Great Canyon of Taihang Mountain.

 

The author is photographed at the eight spring gorge.

Taihang Mountain Grand Canyon is located in Huguan County of Shanxi Province and Linzhou City of Henan Province. It is located in the middle part of Mount Taihang. Beginning with the 327 Provincial Road from Huguan to Linzhou, the mountains on both sides of the canyon begin to crumble. The endless stone walls on both sides of the road are cut out with a knife.

According to geological records, the Taihang Mountains were a sea in the Ordovician, deposited huge thick limestone. 5 million to 2.4 million years ago, due to the subduction of the Pacific Plate, the Asian Plate was strongly impacted, forming the Taihang Mountains uplift and the depression of the North China Plain.

It was golden autumn, and the trees on both sides were dripping green, entering the canyon. A cold wind came, and all the people in the same company reached out of the window and felt the gift of nature. The mountain breeze is accompanied by laughter and laughter, and we are heading for the most famous scenic spot.

Along the winding provincial road, it took about 20 kilometers to enter the Grand Canyon Scenic spot. We went into a small restaurant under the guidance of a local villager, ordered a few small fries, peer Lao Li asked for a large bowl of noodles, eat with relish.

During the chat, the local villagers told us that it would take about two to three days for us to visit the Grand Canyon thoroughly, which was a delusion for my office worker. So we decided to pick up the best and most famous Valley, the eight spring gorge.

Baquanxia is a branch gorge of Longquanxia, with a length of 13 km, a width of 30 meters, a narrow gap of 3 meters, upstream and downstream drop of 300 meters, including karst caves, a line of days, Jiuzhan Road, eight water and other scenic spots, the middle of eight springs at the same time, so named Baquanxia.

We bought tickets and sightseeing tickets. In the car, the driver advised us to take the boat first and then up, take the cableway, take the elevator, the journey down about five hours. It was almost one o'clock at noon, and the whole tour was about six o'clock. Maybe it was twelve o'clock in the evening and the next day was still a working day. However, all of them agreed to visit as soon as possible and strive for an early conclusion.

We entered the boat by the tunnel. Lao Li came in with a half-sleeve, shivering with cold in the tunnel. Fortunately, it was not long before he left the tunnel. The front of the tunnel suddenly opened up, showing a green lake.

The water inflow in the eight spring gorge is estimated by my visual measurement, which is between 5-6 flows. People built a dam at the entrance of the tunnel, blocked the spring and formed a green lake. The cliffs on both sides were covered with green trees, reflected on the green water of the lake. The crew were busy taking pictures and videos. But I quietly wondered how strong it was to make the thousand rocks a little stronger. Point of erosion, forming such a huge Valley?

Ancient Chinese philosophers saw this phenomenon thousands of years ago, and summed up the wisdom of "water dropping through the stone", "to be gentle and strong", "to be good as water, to be gentle under the world, to gallop the world to be firm". They raised this phenomenon to the height of philosophy to warn human life and order.

The sages didn't know that carbonate would form calcium bicarbonate and erode with water and oxygen, but their wise brains interpreted this phenomenon so clearly that I had to admire the ancient sages endlessly. The rise of a natural phenomenon to the height of philosophy is also a profound and profound aspect of Chinese culture

With the ship traveling about twenty minutes, about two or three kilometers, along the steep mountain, upright both sides of the river rise in 90 degrees, visual altitude are more than 200 meters, a bay of Green Lake winding forward, about 30 meters wide, the narrowest point can only accommodate two boats through; and to the narrowest point, The man with the boat looked at the two boats as if they could not get through, and when they were about to collide with each other, he exclaimed. However, the master who sailed the boat only made a slight turn and passed safely. But the boat crew still felt a sense of danger and added a lot of sigh.

On the shore, we walked along the curved canyon, one along the water, one over the water, and there were always curved bridges leading us upstream. The sound of water was booming along the way, and the cries of adults and children were heard.

In a place, there was a lot of water surging from somewhere in the rock. A careful visitor slowly counted out a few points of water, and he was very red faced. In fact, some water points are mostly just a spring. Although the predecessors have made it clear that Eight springs, but there are 11 or 12 places.

The spring water spewed out and gathered in the mountains, causing a huge roar. This can not help but let people sigh, that little droplets of water could form such a huge force, pouring mountains and seas, destroying the withered and decayed, the hard stone walls are hard life pulled out of the trenches, courageously forward, straight to the sea.

At the end, there is less and less spring water. We went up to the cableway station, lined up for two hours and finally got on the mountain cable car, crossing thousands of mountains: one climbing up, one dive down, until the end of the cableway. At this time, we have climbed more than 1000 meters, overlooking the mountains into the clouds, layers of mountains, white clouds floating between the top of the mountain, if hidden, like a dream.

We hurried back, so Lao Li took the lead and crossed the layers of pedestrians and ran down the hill. Layers of steps are steep and upright, about 500 meters down vertically, and no one knows how many steps have been crossed to a ladder. After another hour's queue, they took the elevator to the exit of the scenic spot. The sky ladder is about 208 meters high. It looks down from the height. It only feels that the legs are soft and can not be seen again.

After six hours, plus the return journey, the four of us went to enjoy the wonderful scenery. Especially, the author has a lot of thinking in his mind, from the geological wonders, natural landscape to the culture and civilization from nature, can not help but marvel at the great God of Creation and the long-standing national cultural spirit of the Chinese nation. This is enough.
